The inside right door of my refrigerator is completely stocked.
So much so, that by looking at my
condiment door, one would think that I was a millionaire. I have every condiment known to man.I have about 4 different types ofmayonnaise, 5-7 types of mustard, hot sauce
galore, salsas, chutneys, ketchup (yummy), a plethora of vinegars, BBQ sauce,
steak sauces,wostershire sauce,
horseradish (well, all of the makings for a Bloody Mary), of course some
packets of duck sauce, and finally, my all-time favorite- salad dressing.

I have always loved salad dressing.I started out my salad career with ranch
dressing and quickly moved over to blue cheese.I dabbled a little in French, honey mustard, creamy Italian, creamy
parmesan, Poppy seed, etc.However, once
the delectable taste of vinaigrette hit my tongue, I never turned back. Vinaigrette is the greatest culinary creation ever.Balsamic vinaigrette, red wine vinaigrette, Greek
vinaigrette, artichoke vinaigrette, lemon – garlic vinaigrette, shallot vinaigrette,
Caesar vinaigrette….I can go on and on by putting any word in front of vinaigrette.I enjoy a good salad and understand the health benefits, but there is
nothing I love more than a soggy vinaigrette salad.

Ted Nugent getting ready to shoot me. It makes him very happy.

Let’s be honest here…I drink vinaigrette.I can’t get enough of the shit.I used to hide my disgusting habit…actually
duck into the women’s bathroom at my day job, to have my salad dressing
time.Now, I wear it proudly....on my face. My favorite is Pret a Manger’s Balsamic Vinaigrette.I could drink vats and vats of it….maybe
even bathe in it.Sometimes, Pret’s vinaigrette
is the best part of my day.I could be
run over by a taxi, hit in the face by a homeless person then shot in the knee
by Ted Nugent …but, follow that up with a cup of vinaigrette, suddenly everything
is better and all is forgotten.Vinaigrette
is my Calgon.
